During 1650-1654 The Irish archbishop James Ussher wrote his Annales
 Veteris et Nove Testamenti in which he set out his famous biblical
 chronology and his conclusion that the universe was created in 4004
 BCE.  This is 169 years off, according to my own study of the 
 Biblical texts.  I calculate Adams creation to have been in 4173 BCE.

Gen. 41:46 Joseph is 30 years old at time of pharoah's dream	1945 BCE

Gen. 45:6 It is 2 years into the famine when Joseph makes himself known 
to his brothers and brings his father to Egypt.  Joseph is therefore 39 
years old at the time of his fathers arrival; while his father is 130 
years old meaning Joseph was born when his father was 91.

     According to Exodus 7:7, Aaron is 3 years older than Moses and was 
83 when he first went to talk with Pharaoh, and was 123 when he died at 
the end of the Exodus; meaning at the beginning of the Exodus Aaron was 
83.  The Exodus took place exactly 430 years after their arrival.  
Therefore if Israel moved to Egypt in 2238, and 430 years after they left 
(in the year 2668) then Aaron was born 83 years earlier in the year 2585.  
and 2588 at the birth of Moses (Ex. 7:7).

I Kings states that 480 years after the Israelis left Egypt it was the fourth year 
of Solomon's reign, now if we subtract 4 years for Solomon's reign and 40 years for 
David's (I Kings 2:10,11) we get 3104 (1070 BCE) for the year David was crowned King 
of Judah (He rules at Hebron).

Since Jerusalem was destroyed in 586 B.C.E., and according to the Biblical 
chronology that occured approximately 3,588 years after the creation of 
Adam (3588 + 585 = 4,173 which is 1 BCE) the creation of the Earth occured 
circa 4173 BCE according to the Bible.

Year     1 = 4173 BCE
      3588 =  586 BCE
      4173 =    1 BCE
      4174 =    1 CE
      6121 = 1948 CE  Creation of State of Israel
      6181 = 2008 CE  Current year
